Specifying the location of source, listing, or separate debug file in remote debug mode by using environment variables

z/OS® Debugger retrieves the information it displays in the Source window from one of the following files:
  • source or listing files
  • separate debug files (.dbg files or SYSDEBUG)
  • EQALANGX files
  • .mdbg files (module map files)
If your build or run your applications on UNIX System Services and you move these files, you can use the following environment variables to specify the new location of these files:
EQA_SRC_PATH
Specifies the location of the source, listing, SYSDEBUG, or EQALANGX files.
EQA_DBG_PATH
Specifies the location of the .dbg file.
EQA_MDBG_PATH
Specifies the location of the .mdbg file.
EQA_DBG_SYSDEBUG
Specifies the location of SYSDEBUG
The following example shows you how to declare an environment variable that specifies the location of a listing file:
export EQA_SRC_PATH="/u/build1/try1:/u/build2/try3:evaf.test.listing"
You can have a combination of data sets and UNIX file system paths separated by a colon (:) and enclosed in quotation marks.
